I am a native Korean speaker and freelance translator specializing in Korean–Japanese and Japanese–Korean translation, localization, proofreading, and Korean tutoring. I hold a JLPT N1 certification and have strong communication skills in Japanese, with practical experience communicating with Japanese speakers in customer-facing situations. I also have English skills, allowing me to handle English–Korean translation and proofreading when needed. I focus on delivering translations that are not only accurate, but also natural, culturally appropriate, and easy for the target audience to understand. • Korean–Japanese / Japanese–Korean translation • English–Korean translation and proofreading • Localization for websites, apps, social media, and casual content • Natural Korean writing and proofreading • Korean tutoring for Japanese or English speakers I value clear communication, careful proofreading, and on-time delivery. Whether you need a natural translation, polished Korean text, or help learning Korean, I would be happy to support your project.

Korean-language content I wrote and directed hit 20M+ VIEWS and 12K SUBSCRIBERS in 2 months. That same instinct for what makes Korean audiences stop scrolling is what I bring to clients, from travel startups to $800M+ B2B tech enterprises. I write, localize, and QA Korean marketing that actually connects. 🤗 ⬇️ View my portfolio below. Let's talk. ___ Pleasure to meet you. I'm Dae. Most of my clients work with me because I don't just speak Korean, I understand what makes Korean audiences stop scrolling, click, and buy. I grew a Korean-language YouTube channel from zero to 12,000 subscribers and 12 million views in two months. Every script, every hook, every word was written for a specific Korean demographic. No ads. No shortcuts. Just copy that landed. I've also delivered marketing localization for travel-tech clients and B2B video subtitle translation for an $800M+ European tech enterprise, always holding the same bar: would this land with a native Korean audience? Over the past year, I've worked across: - Korean copywriting (ads, landing pages, email campaigns, product descriptions) - Marketing localization and cultural adaptation - Linguistic QA and proofreading for Korean-language content - Korean social media and short-form content strategy - Brand messaging review for Korea market entry - AI output review and evaluation (Korean LLM responses) - AI language-data collection coordination (recruitment, scheduling, and automated reminder/attendance systems) ___ When you work with me, you get Korean that actually sounds Korean. Not translated, not stiff, not awkward. Every piece I write or review is held against one standard: would a native Korean audience trust this? I care about getting the nuance right. There's a real difference between Korean that reads correctly and Korean that converts, and that gap is exactly where I work. I aim for long-term partnerships where the work keeps compounding, not one-off projects that go nowhere. Looking forward to building something useful together. Feel free to reach out with any questions and we'll connect. Cheers, Dae P.S. If your use case doesn't exactly match what I listed above, reach out anyway. If it involves Korean language, Korean audiences, or Korean market entry, I'm more than willing to figure it out with you.
